SUMMARY:Noted Chicago Bridge Designers
DESCRIPTION:A look at a quintet of designers who impacted bridge design in Chicago and throughout the United States. \nWhile it would be hyperbole to call Chicago “a city of bridges”\, it certainly has its fair share crossing the Chicago River. The city has more moveable bridges than any other in the United States. Multiple waterways\, car and pedestrian traffic\, and heavy railroad infrastructure require bridges of all shapes and sizes in the city–some of which have amazing histories often overlooked. Behind the bridges are their designers: Ralph Modjeski and Joseph Strauss began their storied careers and opened their first offices in Chicago before receiving national and international acclaim; John Alexander Low Waddell and John Greiner were already famous before they erected structures in Chicago; an architect and urban planner\, Edward Bennett\, worked to instill the principles of the City Beautiful movement in his bridge designs which was contained in the Chicago Plan of 1909. This virtual program will discuss these designers and the functional beauty these bridges bring to Chicago.

SUMMARY:Alden B. Dow: A Way of Life
DESCRIPTION:Midland\, Michigan’s significance in the development of the Mid-Century Modern Movement is well deserved thanks to native son\, and Michigan’s Architect Laureate Alden B. Dow F.A.I.A. Introducing modernism to Midland and creating over 100 structures there\, Dow inspired numerous architects\, designers and builders to create modern and organic structures in this small city. From 1930 to 1970 over 430 individually designed MCM structures were created and have now been documented to share. \nFrom the beginning of his career Dow’s designs inspired freedom of thought and innovation. “Gardens never end and buildings never begin” is how he defined his own form of organic architecture\, seamlessly integrating nature and structure together. Please join us for a special\, free virtual opportunity to hear Craig McDonald\, Executive Director of the Alden B. Dow Home and Studio talk about what influenced Dow\, his body of work\, and the legacy of Mid-Twentieth Century Modern Architecture he initiated.

SUMMARY:New Book Presentation and Discussion on the Origins of Jean Baptiste Point du Sable
DESCRIPTION:In this book discussion\, Dr. Rafael Pérez Guerra presents a series of historical documents long accepted as traditional and true until the mid-twentieth century\, when several American and Chicago historians replaced the sources with their interpretations and historical fallacies that persist today. The author attempts to clarify these presumptions and demands that the truth be revealed.
